The "from" address must be defined for email incident response actions to work. However,  Google will always overwrite your "from" address with your Gmail address so you won't be able to change it from NSIA.

Setting up an email incident response action can be tricky since email servers may fail silently. Thus, NSIA may not be able to detect the problem.
